New academic year has just started
The University College Marbella Design Academy has just started a new academic year.
We would like to welcome our new students to the Academy and wish them all the success in their new courses. We appreciate that for many new students this is a very daunting and exiting time, with moving to a new country and starting at a new institution. We hope you will love Spain, your College and our stunning surroundings just as much as we do.
If you need help with anything then we are ready to help you. Just ask! 

 

Happy new students from all over the world just started 

New students get together day

As a welcome to all new students to the Marbella Design Academy Family, the College arrange at the beginning of each academic year a Students Get Together Day, were new and old students, tutors and staff are being introduced to each other in an non formal atmosphere.
This time the students, tutors and administration enjoyed a wonderful day at La Alpujata, neighboured to the College. La Sierra de la Alpujata is part of the region of the Sierra de las Nieves where the Natural Park of the “Sierra de las Nieves” is integrated within the Biosphere Reserve, a designation granted by UNESCO.
After a fabulous hike through hidden paths, guided by an expert tour guide of the area. They all enjoyed a nice time together at the local football pitch with the stunning view in the middle of the forest only 1km from Monda. In a relaxed atmosphere everyone played football, paddle tennis, listening to music...as well as tasting an amazing Paella and beautiful sangria. It was a lovely day where many new friendships were made.

Free Spanish classes

Remember to join the FREE Spanish classes offered twice per week after tuition hours. You can join the beginner or advance course. Even though the classes are voluntary we do recommend you take those classes. It is great to be able to speak Spanish and soon you will already be able to communicate in Spain with the locals.
After 3 years at our College you will as well graduate with a Certificate in Spanish. 

A Cambridge English Qualification 
Through an agreement done with local representatives of Cambridge University, Marbella Design Academy has become an exam venue where ESOL Examinations will be taken. We recommend this course to students who need to improve their

English and to students who would like to have an official Cambridge English Certificate.
Students are welcome to join this course that starts on the 5th of November, twice a week for 60 euros a month only. First Cambridge English Certificate examination will be held on the 15th of March 2013.
